About this property

Great location beside #1 fairway with ocean view

Bordering the fairway of Matarangi Golf Course's signature #1 hole, this is a great location for a family holiday - the perfect place to enjoy meals or drinks on the deck while enjoying the idyllic view.

Situated in one of Matarangi's most sought-after streets. A couple of minutes walk along the quiet cul-de-sac will take you to the beach or the nearest tennis court. It is also walking distance to The Dunes golf club-house and restaurant.

Cozy, Lockwood-style house with large deck. Lots of off-street parking.

The kitchen, dining and lounge are open plan with sliding doors leading to the deck.

The bunks in the main house are more suited to children than adults. However there are two spare mattresses stored in the bunk room which can be used if needed for adults.

There is a very comfortable sleep-out just across the back deck from the house. It contains a bedroom with en-suite bathroom (shower, toilet and vanity). Its queen bed is split-base, so can be converted to two singles if this bedding arrangement suits you better.

The outside furniture includes small wooden table and 4 chairs plus bench seating. During the summer months (Xmas to Easter) a glass dining table with 6 chairs, a sun-umbrella and a Weber barbecue is also available.

Extras: Cleaning (Required);
NOTE: Following Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to:
- Bring your own linen (towels/sheets/pillow cases/tea towels, etc)
- Remove all rubbish at the end of your stay (you can drop it at the dump for free on your way out of town)

Family Wedding at Matarangi

This is a great location, very clean with water views and easy access to the beach which isl about a 4 minute walk away. The Host was very helpful and accomodating. We stayed as a party of 4 adults but it would be excellent for children as well. It is our 2nd visit to this property & we would stay again. Highly recommends

Perfect location for a break!

I had a fantastic time at this property. It’s in a quiet area with a relaxed feel about it. Great communication with owner which made checking in very easy. Great information folder which had all the answers of any questions and info about the local area. 1 minute walk to the beach. I highly recommend this as a place to get away from it all.

Perfect family getaway spot

Quiet street, 5 min walk to beach, outlook onto golf course, lots of cycleways and walkways nearby. Saw dolphins twice while walking along beach. Older style home with all the comforts you should need. A seperate sleepout with shower/toliet which was perfect for the grandparents. Very pleasant stay. We will be back.

Best place we have stayed in Matarangi

Best place we have stayed in Matarangi. So close to the golf club and just a stones throw away from the beach. Children are very welcome at the proerty and have so many toys and dvds accessible to them. Spoilt for choice really! House is very well maintained and has everything you need to have a fabulous holiday!

Host profile image
Our family have been holidaying at various places in Matarangi since the 1980s - our kids grew up with Matarangi as the go-to summer destination. When the chance came to buy this house we jumped at it - a regular place now for the next generation to enjoy relaxing Matarangi holidays.

Why they chose this property

Sheltered, lovely view, only a short walk to the beach
